Welcome to Dan Fulwiler's Blog
Welcome to Dan Fulwiler’s Studio!
We specialize in Original Fine Art, and Giclee Reproductions.
Dan Fulwiler is a painter and a printmaker. When it comes to painting, he will tell you he has painted everything from fencing, to doghouses, to 30,000 square foot mansions. Dan has produced murals and trompe l’oeils for some of the nicest families. Faux finishes and wallpaper are among the specialties he is well known for as a decorator.
Dan’s fine art is usually very surreal and is always full of hidden messages and meanings. When on display at shows the most common comment we receive about his art is that it looks like what would happen if Salvador Dali took acid! Dan will tell you he is a Surreal Cartoonist using a type of Dadaism to express his concern about the obvious ill-effects of our Capitalist-enriching-consumer-based-free-enterprise system; and the industrial-military complex that we have created to support it (whatever that means).
You can choose from a large selection of ready to ship art or contact us to create something unique. Dan is always available for private commissions.
Artists can take advantage of our expertise to photograph and reproduce their work; giving them the ability to sell the same work many times over while maintaining the value of their original piece.
We print on 100% cotton rag, acid free canvas; using archival pigmented inks. Your canvas print then gets a protective UV resistant varnish coat, applied by hand; guaranteeing one’s canvas will look excellent for several hundred years!
We are not mass producing cheap scrim vinyl from China, or printing with solvent based inks that destroy our planet and fade to invisibility in just a few years. We are artisans, creating heirloom quality GICLEE` prints that are meant to be handed down from generation to generation. We even get our own Renaissance Style stretcher bars custom milled from a local hardwood supplier. These are simple, heavy duty hardwood stretcher frames made in the same style of the stretchers that were made by the great masters like Leonardo Da Vinci and Michelangelo.
Looking for something other than canvas? You can also order prints on fine art papers, photo papers, adhesive back vinyl, and trans-lit films, all created with the same quality, care, and craftsmanship we put into everything we do.
All of our Giclee prints for sale are custom crafted, by hand, by yours truly. They have all been coated with a UV blocking protective coat and were printed with an IRIS printer using 100% cotton-rag, acid-free canvas using archival quality, pigmented dye-based inks. They are stretched by hand onto hardwood stretchers using stainless steel staples. With proper care these prints are designed to look excellent for well over 300 years.
Almost none of the acrylic paintings have been coated with varnish because I cannot consider them finished. Included in the purchase price, I will clean the painting, add a single layer of waterborne varnish to protect it, and apply a new paper backing with a written provenance and signature.
All of this art, including the prints, are one-of-a-kind, unique, individuals. No other duplicate pieces exist. All of the artworks being offered have been around for a while. These pieces have travelled to shows and moved to different galleries throughout the years. It goes without saying that the works are real, and delicate, and some show signs of damage. This is to be expected and really nothing is to be done about it save to appreciate the temporary nature of all art.
If you need brand new art in mint condition, I am available for commissions.
